Amusing bit from Bill Simmons' Friday column:
Q: Bill Simmons mentioned MY name? In the street? When we bounce from this (bleep) here, y'all (expletives) gonna go down to them corners and let them people know ... WORD DID NOT GET BACK TO ME! Let 'em know Billy take on any (expletive), Bill Simmons, Allen Iverson, whoever. My name IS MY NAME!!In his time as Philly's GM, though, Billy never had the authority of Marlo, that's for sure. He also never had his lieutenants shoot people and stuff them into abandoned rowhouses. Then again, if Billy King is Marlo, I guess David Stern is The Greek.

-- Billy King, PhillySG: I'd write "LOL" here if I wasn't so morally opposed to the usage of the phrase "LOL." By the way, any e-mail that can successfully incorporate Marlo Stanfield and Billy King is a mortal lock to make the mailbag. That's just the way it is.
